DAY 4 OF 4

Give Thanks for a Place in the Lamb’s Book of Life

Jesus Christ is referred to in Scripture as the Lamb of God, and in Revelation 21 we read about His (the Lamb’s) Book of Life. This is where the names of those who believe in Christ are stored. If someone’s name is in this Book, their eternity is secure in heaven. As redeemed believers, we give thanks because Christ’s sacrifice for us has made it possible for our names to be recorded in the Lamb’s Book of Life.

The Lamb, Christ Jesus, with His own blood earned the right to include our names in His Book of Life. He does this for everyone who believes. The Lamb is the one who guarantees your entry in His book. No one else can do that.

As we continue to ponder the many reasons that we are thankful, let us rejoice in the fact that our names were recorded in the Lamb’s Book of Life the moment that we believed in and accepted Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. Remember that God knows your name. Be confident that He has included your name in His eternal book that is sealed with the blood of Christ.

Do not be limited by what the systems of the world say about you. You are redeemed. You are loved by God. You are not a stranger to Him. You are God’s child. Your Heavenly Father knows your name. He has written YOU into His book.

Thought of the Day: I have eternal security in Christ. Because He has forgiven me, my name is written in the Lamb’s Book of Life, and heaven is sure for me!
